UCL QF : Barcelona Vs AS Roma

Good, at least now we have a reason to fire Valverde and his pathetic cowardly approach

I thought winning the CL against the likes of Roma is easy.

There is no place like Rome though, I must admit I really expected this to be a dull night

Forza Roma Forza Roma Forza Roma Forza Roma Forza Roma Forza Roma Forza Roma Forza Roma Forza Roma Forza Roma Forza Roma Forza Roma Forza Roma Forza Roma Forza Roma Forza Roma Forza Roma Forza Roma Forza Roma Forza Roma Forza Roma Forza Roma Forza Roma Forza Roma Forza Roma Forza Roma Forza Roma

Can't think of a fanbase who deserves this more than Roma fans, abused and battered for years.

This team is undefeated in LOL Liga.

Just let that sink

Also, you can't start Dzeko up front and expect to eliminate Barca

pls

These dickish posts have aged really well. How I wish they only active Roma fan on the forum was not literally the nicest guy on the forum.

Congrats @Mclewis. Just wish Totti was here for this.

Always believed in Roma. Their loss in Nou Camp was very harsh and their win today was much deserved.

Not to be taken lightly at all.

Wow just wow, unbelievable, no one in the world exccept Roma thought it was possible, now I know what PSG felt like a bit, god.

Overreaction or not, this performance was so bad. And goes to show how football is such a strange game. Ability wise we are way better than Roma, but our mentality and game plan going in looks like just holding onto our lead from the first leg and we just slept through most of the match. For me its the players fault but the blame has to rest of the manager? I mean taking off Iniesta like that for Gomes (I dont wanna blame him) but it was foreseeable LOL) and we concede the third. Its terrible the team of our team shown by this game completely.

Credit to Roma of course and congrats. This was a historic result, one of the biggest in the history of CL.

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYY

Got Roma at 15:1 to qualify at half-time, before the game would've been 40:1.

Dont know how much of this performance was down to him, but I think this game really has undone for his work for us tbh, and I think he will probably need to go.

This is the difference between Messi and Ronaldo. This happened to Madrid many times, like against Wolfsburg or even Schalke I think where they got outplayed and almost came back but Ronaldo still scored 1 or 2 goals and that was it. Meanwhile Messi stands on 2 CL knockout goals from quarter finals onwards in 5 years (to Ronaldo's 20).

Blame Messi? Really?

What about your imbecile board? What about your nice guy beta coach? What about the awesome signings?

No, let's blame Messi instead

It's 100% down to him, he has us play like that for the entire season. Been saying that after every game. Except he's only being exposed when it matters, of course.

I cant imagine Ronaldo winning 6 Ballon D'or and beat Messi's 5, that really would be something... could really happen now if Real retains the CL again...

What a horrible little bunch these Barca fanboys are. Just disgraceful ffs

Football well and truly won today

That's how you come back to win a tie. Not diving around asking for penalties and red cards

Messi is not the main culprit but the supposed best player of all time must bail out his team in such difficult times. It's Roma as well, with all due respect, not prime Bayern. 2 goals in 5 years in CL knockouts from quarter finals onwards is inexcuseable. Everything said about Messi was true, nothing without prime Xaviesta, except that one season with prime Neysuarez. Messi only works well with the best 2 midfielders or best 2 forwards possible, a normal good (but not all-conquering great) team and he does nothing.

Barca punished Roma in the first leg but it wasn't like they were two levels below. I did count them out but you can't say it wasn't completely deserved over 180 mins. Unreal belief in themselves. Fantastic stuff.

EDF won a match 3-0 with Schick and Juan Jesus in starting positions ffs

Nainggolan-De Rossi-Strootman were immense, dominating even

Dzeko, what a match, he's been great over both legs

Bwahahahahahahahah

Barca were outplayed horribly tonight. The first half alone could have buried the game.

Barca just went scoreless to a team with JUAN JESUS on defense
